Atcheson
& Son was established in 1936 to supply buttons to the local shirt
trade and at a later date PVC packaging, pins and all accessories for
shirt presentation.

In 1981 we
moved to purpose built premises on the outskirts of Londonderry and as
part of a natural progression extended the range of buttons to cover all
the garments industry from lingerie through to outerwear.

Our button
dying operation is one of the largest in Great Britain and Ireland with
a very experienced team and modern machinery coupled with laboratory facilities
fully accredited by Marks & Spencer plc. We are also a major supplier
of covered buttons to individual specifications.

During 1991
we opened our Glasgow office and warehouses and in 1993 the Londonderry
premises were extended to include a broad conversion factory, manufacturing
unprinted shirt boards and boxes.

We have a
competent team of Sales Executives covering Great Britain, Ireland and
mainland Europe. With a computerised stock control system and an efficient
workforce in Londonderry we have become one of the main suppliers to the
largest factories in Europe and have also remained faithful smaller CMT
factories that enabled us to become leaders in our field.
